MikeDunnAuthor<p>I guess I got kinda nostalgic with my previous post about Shannon. I really do miss him a lot. When I talk about my past, my son sometimes says he wishes he could've met Shannon.</p><p>So, here are some photos from 1993, when Shannon flew down to El Salvador to hang out with me. I'd been in Central America for a coupla months already. Shannon brought 2 surfboards and we surfed Punta Roca, in La Libertad, long before it became a major stop on the WSL Championship Tour. Today it's a crowded lineup. In fact, the Surf City El Salvador Pro is happening there right now. But back then, you could share that nearly perfect cobble stone point break with as few as 2-3 local boys, and no other foreigners. We also surfed nearby El Zunzal, at least until a shark drove everyone out of the water. (There had been a fatal shark attack just a few days prior, and no one, not even the locals, wanted to test their luck). They also have sea snakes. And the water and air are so warm you're tempted to bring a water bottle out into the lineup with you to stave off dehydration.</p><p>The first picture, below, is from a demonstration we attended against the death squads. In '93, the Civil War was officially over. But there were still periodic death squad killings. People had protest signs: "Impunidad, Basta Ya!" There were UN peace keepers there. Busloads of people from all the different departments (states), proudly displaying the names of people's towns and villages. Representatives were there from Amnesty International, and CISPES (Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador). In San Salvador's Zona Rosa, you could still see bullet holes in the restaurant walls, 10 years later, from the brazen attack by guerrillas there. They killed several U.S. marines and businessmen, as well as Salvadoran soldiers. And in the beach side cantinas and restaurants of La Libertad, you could gorge on oysters with oligarchs and their teenage secretaries (not that one would want to, but they'd sometimes show up, while you were drinking a caguama of cerveza Regia and munching on free snacks of grilled shrimp).</p><p>The other 2 photos are from the room we rented in a casa de huespedes we were staying at in El Zunzal. Shannon brought a camping stove that ran on gasoline. We sometimes cooked our own meals in the room. One night, a bat flew into a wall outside our room. As I examined it's stunned body, lying on the ground, it got scared, but was too stunned to fly. So, using it's wings like propellers, it scuttled into our room before we could stop it. And then managed to fly up into the rafters. And for the rest of the trip, we had to share our room with a bat.</p><p>There was a local guy we befriended, Antonio. He was a classic surfer bum. Not sure what he did for money, but he was always surfing, or hanging out with us. Made himself a didgeridoo out of bamboo, and was quite competent at playing it. He always refused when we offered him beer, or aguardiente, because "no son puro." But he had no problem with weed, "porque es puro," as every stoner knows. Antonio loved 60s music. His favorite song was Break on Through, by the Doors. He was convinced that the song was about surfing. They way he explained it, the song was about punching through a wave on the paddle out, breaking through to the other side. And whenever he thought anyone was getting anxious or angry he'd say, "enfrialo."</p><p>The day Shannon arrived, I bussed to San Salvador, from La Libertad, to meet him at the airport. We stopped on the way back at a roadside refreshment stand. They had fresh coconuts, which Shannon was craving. But he made the mistake of requesting "una coca" instead of "un coco." He was very sad when they handed him a plastic bag filled with coca cola and a straw.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/elsalvador" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elsalvador</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FMLN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FMLN</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/civilwar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>civilwar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/surfing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>surfing</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History April 2, 1863: Bread riots occurred in Richmond, Virginia, as a result of a drought the previous year, combined with a blockade by the Union Army and overall Civil War-related shortages. Food riots occurred throughout the South around this time, led primarily by women. During the Richmond riot, women broke into storehouses and shops, stealing food, clothing and jewelry before the militia was able to restore order.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CivilWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilWar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/rebellion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rebellion</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Riot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Riot</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/looting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>looting</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/richmond" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>richmond</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/virginia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>virginia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/women" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>women</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 25, 1919: Cossack troops murdered 4,000 Jews in the Tetiev pogrom in Ukraine, two-thirds of the Jewish population. They tossed infants into the air and dashed their bodies on the pavement and burned the Jewish quarter to the ground. The Tetiev pogrom would become the prototype of mass murder during the Holocaust. During the Russian Civil War, from 1918 to 1921, there were 1,236 violent attacks against Jews in 524 Ukrainian towns. 30,000-60,000 died in these pogroms. The Ukrainian People's Republic army, Ukrainian warlords, the Red Army and the Polish Army all participated in anti-Jewish pogroms.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/antisemitism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>antisemitism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pogrom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pogrom</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/massacre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>massacre</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/genocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>genocide</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jewish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jewish</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/polish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>polish</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>communism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>russia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/civilwar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>civilwar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/warcrimes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>warcrimes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ukraine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>poland</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/redarmy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>redarmy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cossack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cossack</span></a></p>
